    Preface


    This is the second edition of CSA C22.2 No. 250.4, Portable luminaires, one of a series of Standards issued by CSA Group under Part II of the Canadian Electrical Code. It supersedes the previous editions published in 2014.


    This Standard contains specific requirements for portable luminaires and is intended to be used together with the requirements for luminaires contained in CSA C22.2 No. 250.0.


    The major changes to this edition include


    a) the addition of Annex AA;


    b) requirements for luminaires powered by rechargeable batteries; and


    c) the removal of requirements for lighting strings.

    This Standard has been developed in compliance with Standards Council of Canada requirements for National Standards of Canada. It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group.
